SLD Transmission (needs to be rebuilt) Central NC

Also backing in the s280 fiesta into the garage every one was looking. The whistle and the exhaust grumbles were sounding great in there.

Having just heard that car in person, I'm sure it sounded amazing in there lol

Took it out around 83000 miles. Started getting a noise in neutral that goes away when you press in the clutch. I do have a video of the noise. As soon as I heard the noise I parked the car. All gears worked and shifted fine. Also never had any issues popping out of gear. I'll meet within a reasonable distance. Located in the central part of North Carolina. 250obo View attachment 50067

Was this a tapping noise while in neutral? If so I have the same thing it's just the flywheel springs that have gone out didn't have to replace the whole transmission. My mechanic said I need to get a new flywheel but it should still handle the power I'm putting down with no issues. Whoosh hybrid turbo on e30 tuneplus and I can still pull hard on it.

I thought it was my flywheel at first but it's actually firm with very little play. No odd sounds and it looked decent. You could feel it when you spun the transmission shaft by hand.

@Fusion Works any update on the transmission @jessemon1106 dropped off? i don't think i'll ever rebuild a tranny but it's a bucket list goal

edit: my bad on reviving a long dead sale thread. just never saw an update anywhere else about this

I haven't had a chance to get over to NC to pick it up. Life gets in the way.
